In the past, which credit bureau do they look at when using iPhone upgrade program? This is the first year we have all three frozen, so don’t want that to be a holdup.

I believe it was Trans Union but I would call all the 3 major credit bureaus and remove the freeze.
The Apple IUP checks the credit before this Friday pre-order date, right? I might be in the same boat, where I don’t have a freeze but the creditor has to contact me to verify it’s me so hoping that would be done before this Friday so there won’t be any hiccups with the preorder on Friday morning. I thought that’s what they did in the past. Can anyone confirm?

I believe last time it started early for UPS check ups and people were reporting they were good to go so there were no hick-ups while pre-ordering.

Can’t believe we have just a little over 24 hours left. Will find out if all the rumors are true.
I really hope that the black one is a true jet black, I will be all over that one. Will have to consider a 512 GB option, but 1TB seems excessive to me. I do take a lot of photos and videos, but so far, 256 GB has held up pretty well.

Is it jet black or matte black?

Ok. 13PM upgrades over 12PM (the best I can determine):
  • Smaller notch & bigger camera bump
  • A15 Bionic
  • Improved 5G with new modem
  • Photo upgrades (larger sensors, portrait mode video, improved wide angle images, astrophotography?)
  • Dynamic 120 Hz refresh
  • Always on display
  • Satellite communications for emergency texts
  • More storage
  • Larger batteries
  • New colors
Some nice upgrades. There could be more, or different features.... will have to wait until Tuesday to find out what's really happening. As it stands, it's looking like it won't be enough for me to upgrade from my 12PM. The upgrade which I'd probably notice most would be the always-on display. The rest would be nice, but for how I use the phone it's not enough for me to justify the extra $$$$.

If it was how I watched movies, if I used it for gaming, or if it was my main camera it would be a different story. I'm going to use the extra $$$$ to plink down on the new MBP14M1X, loaded. That's what I've got my eye on this year.

I may drop in once in a while to follow the ordering day and shipping excitement!

Sounds like an S upgrade. But don't be fooled. It's a worthy upgrade.

I do believe Satellite Communications for Emergency Texts won't be launched this year. iPhone 13 will have the hardware for it but Apple will introduce it probably next year or something.
